[edit] Sentimental value

Sentimental value (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Dictionary definition that fails WP:NOT; should be deleted or transwikied to Wiktionary. I don't see any reliable sources discussing the phrase (other than as a definition). Charlene 17:16, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Move to Wiktionary. Wikipedia is not a dictionary, it's an encyclopedia. Useight 17:41, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Move to Wiktionary as per Useight Harlowraman 22:12, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Transwiki and delete per above, although I'm kind of surprised that there apparently aren't any sources of discussion. Propaniac 18:36, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Using the word and discussing it are different things. WP:NOTE requires that there be non-trivial discussions about the phrase as a phrase, since this article is about the phrase. --Charlene 18:42, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Yes, I'm surprised that there are no non-trivial sources about the phrase. I'm not doubting your investigation, just commenting that I would have thought there'd be an actual WP article on the phrase. Propaniac 19:50, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete and do not transwiki. The term "sentimental value" does not merit a separate entry in two large paper dictionaries that I just checked. Shalom Hello 18:45, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Seriously though, merge and redirect to Economic appraisal. Wl219 22:28, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Move to Wiktionary as per above. (But I love the remark by ~ Infrangible!)--Fabrictramp 22:50, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to Wikitionary. Darrenhusted 21:59, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
